Skins24 Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 With Portis banged up a bit, I'm really hoping the coaches will give Rock the rock more. He has played much better in his oppurtunities than Betts. Is there any reason why he's not getting the ball more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNationalist Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 I like both of them. I would be happy with either one of them getting more touches with portis hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skins24 Posted January 8, 2006 Author Share Posted January 8, 2006 Exactly. Betts is a great backup to CP. I didn't say he was a good backup. I said when Rock has been given the opportunity to play, he's played extremely well. As evidenced by his 7+ ypc avg. compared to Bett's 3 something. When you're trying to run out the clock, is getting 7 yards or 3 yards better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed I was hoping to see Rock more also, seems he got 100 yds that game and then we haven't seen him since. Not that I don't like Ladell, but I think Rock also has a potential to be a great back.

Portis threw 1 TD, his QB rating was 142, but is he really a better QB than Brunell? :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that what you are basing your earlier comment on, his ypc average? If that's the case, we should just start him and sit Portis and Betts down.
